DoiT node

A DoiT node lets you run DoiT Cloud Intelligence actions directly from your flow. Use it to call Allocations, Alerts, Threads, and other DoiT APIs, and chain them with AWS and GCP nodes so you can automate platform operations in a single flow.

Permissions for DoiT actions​

DoiT actions use your DoiT account permissions. The permissions that your DoiT account needs depend on the feature you are calling. Check the documentation for each feature to understand the permissions your DoiT account must have.

Find an action​

When adding a DoiT node to a flow, select DoiT as the provider and then find an action by searching or browsing within DoiT services. You can also add a template node that includes pre-built DoiT actions to your flow.

DoiT provider selected and list of DoiT actions or search (e.g. Threads, Insights)

Configure an action​

Selecting a DoiT action node opens a side panel with three tabs for configuration:

DoiT action Parameters tab with service/action and fields

  • Parameters: This tab shows the service and action you have chosen and the option to change. You also configure approval settings on this tab. The parameters available vary with service and action. You can insert dynamic values from previous nodes using the + button. For API reference and request details, see the DoiT Developer Hub.

  • Test: Use Test to validate your configuration. Test each node in a flow to ensure it behaves as expected and that data is processed correctly.

    Caution

    This action performs a full execution of the step which can initiate real actions.

Require approval​

If an action should be approved before it runs, select Require approval for this action.

Require approval for DoiT action

  • Notification provider: Choose whether to notify the approver via Slack or email. For Slack, you should have created a shared Slack channel with DoiT.

  • (Optional) Message: A message for the approver. You can add fields from previous nodes so recipients see the details they need to make a decision. See Configure the message field.

  • (Optional) Reject approval after certain time: How long the action waits for approval. If the approver takes no action before the time expires, the action is automatically rejected.

Create a thread​

To create issues in your ITSM tool (for example, Jira or Linear) from a flow, add a DoiT node and select Create a thread action.
